Server is unavailable

I am using western digital's 'My Cloud Home NAS'. I have enabled plex media service on my NAS, and configured the server on Plex account. It was working fine and I was able to stream my media content from my NAS to all my devices. But once I restated the NAS, plex was unable to find the server, and a message comes: > "The server "XYZ" is unreachable. Make sure it's running, double check your network, and try again." Though my I am able to access my NAS content directly.
To make it work again I have to disable the plex media service on my NAS and re-enable it. After doing so a message appears on the Plex page- > "An insecure media server has been found on your network. Reload app insecurely". Once I reload the page my server is found back, but only for few hours. After that I have to repeat the same step and thus I am stuck in the loop.
Kindly help me out of this, as every time I repeat this process, plex prepares the library from scratch, so I have to wait for another half an hour to use plex before my library is fully updated.

Howdy, Stranger!

When logs (server or client app) are requested for an investigation, please do NOT turn on "verbose" logging unless it is explicitly requested. Verbose logging makes things much more difficult in the majority of cases.
